DEN MOTHERS NEEDED IN CUB SCOUT PACK I4S The Cub Scout pack 14!> of Wonder Lake is very much in need of five more den mothers. They are needed to carry out the Scout program for the boys now registered and those not registered due to a new ruling that just came out since Scout Night. The new ruling reads that any boy in the third grade of school may now register in the program as a Club Scout. Please call Frank Schultheis, cubmaster, or Mrs. Roberta Kicker, secretary. These dedicated leaders will be pleased to hear from parents and boys not registered in the Scout program. Program leaders ask everyone to think very seriously about their sons' future and how the Scout program and their help will make him a better citizen. When you call, you are urged to say, "I will be glad to be a den mother or den dad or a committeeman with my son", instead of saying,"I just registered my son in Cub Scouts." Parents are asked not to leave their son out of the Scout program, which will help them now and always in a better future in life. There are many unforgetable rewards. Say you will help. Please call 653-4782 or 653-4837 for more information.

BOND-A-MONTH FREEDOM SHARE CAMPAIGN OPENS The Treasury department is campaigning this fall to emphasize the "Bond-a-Month" method of purchasing U.S. Savings Bonds and new Freedom - Shares, according to Donald J. Still; Woodstock, volunteer bond chairman for McHenry county. "Most people are familiar with the Payroll Savings Plan for automatic Bond purchases," Mr. Still said. "But if you are self-employed or otherwise unable to buy Savings Bonds and Freedom Shares where you work, you should investigate the Bond-a-Month Plan which is available at many banks. The purpose of this fall's campaign is to call special attention to this opportunity." The Bond-a-Month Plan is a free service to depositors. It is an automatic method by which a bank purchases a Savings Bond and a Freedom Share for the customer each month, charging the transaction to his checking account.
